That's what I found too. I also found that you don't find out what examiners are looking for until you start marking exams yourself. Then you find out that an examiner only has a minute or two per paper and work that took hours to write is scanned for the salient points (one mark for each) with the correct connecting logic (a couple of marks). The effort that I used to put into expanding small points got me no extra marks and I can now see why. The whole education system is backwards somehow. Students should start out by teaching the subject first.
